<ul dir="ltr">
<li>Model breakpoints (on states, transitions and ports) can now be used with the Model Debugger. [page 31]</li>
<li>The Events view has been improved. The command for navigating to protocol events in the Project Explorer now works correctly. [page 32]</li>
<li>The model compiler server can now be configured by means of new preferences on the <em>UML Development</em> preference page [page 29]</li>
<li>We have continued to work on functionality related to the new TC format (*.tcjs). Element URIs are now correctly updated when refactoring, and the context menu commands for finding references in TCs now work correctly also for the new format [pages 38-39]</li>
<li>The model compiler now validates the correctness of URIs in .tcjs files. It also detects cycles in the inheritance or prerequisite chains. Another change is that files now are always saved before building with the model compiler, to ensure it gets the latest version of the model as input. [page 28]</li>
<li>There is a new context menu command &quot;Refresh tree&quot; on the TCJS Transformation Configurations virtual folder in the Project Explorer. It is useful for example if you have modified .tcjs files outside of RSARTE. [page 35]</li>

<li style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">It is now easier to work with redefined code snippets. The Code view and Code editor more clearly tells you when a code snippet is redefined, and then provides a hyperlink for navigating to the inherited code snippet in the base class. Also, the commands for &quot;re-inheriting&quot; (i.e. removing a redefinition) are now available in the Project Explorer context menu. Previously they were only available in diagrams. [page 21]</span></li>
<li style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">We have continued to improve the model debugger. Now the context menu commands for launching a model debug session are also available for TCs in the new .tcjs format. There were also many improvements in the Debug view. For example, the tree now stays expanded and is no longer collapsed each time the application is suspended. And many of the labels shown in the view are now clearer and easier to understand. [pages 29-30]</span></li>
<li style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">The new TC editor continue to progress, although it is still an experimental feature. In this release we implemented many useful navigation commands. For example, you can now ctrl+click on names of TC properties in the Code tab to navigate to the corresponding control in another editor tab where the TC property can be edited. In the same way you can navigate from element URIs shown in the code to the Project Explorer.<br>
A new command in the editor dropdown menu allows you to run an evaluation of all TC properties, and show the result in a read-only TC editor. Thereby you can easily see the actual values of TC properties that will be used when the TC is built. [page 34]</span></li>

<ul dir="ltr">
<li>The model execution feature, that has been in RSARTE for a long time, has been improved and is now referred to as the &quot;model debugger&quot;. We have simplified how to launch model debug sessions, and also simplified the general user interface by removing things not commonly used when debugging real-time applications. The model debugger is currently an experimental feature, and we plan to make several improvements in this area in upcoming releases in the near future. [pages 27-28]</li>
<li>It is now easier to launch a generated real-time application from within RSARTE. [page 29]</li>
<li>A first version of a new Transformation Configuration editor is now available as an experimental feature. The new editor works on the new JavaScript-based TC file format, and has several usability improvements compared to the old editor. [page 31]</li>
<li>A new command for copying the URI of an element in the Project Explorer was introduced. [page 22]</li>
<li>A new console for tracing messages from Build Variant scripts is now available. This console makes it significantly easier to develop Build Variant scripts for a customized build environment. [page 33]</li>

<li style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;vertical-align:middle"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">A new command is available for quickly removing projects from the workspace without triggering time-consuming refactorings. This command helps you keep existing workspaces when you want to switch from working on one set of projects to another. The command is called Remove Model Projects, but can actually also be used for removing all kinds of projects from the workspace. [page 18]</span></li>
<li style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;vertical-align:middle"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">The algorithm for migrating profiles from older to newer versions has been improved. The new algorithm ensures that IDs of applied stereotypes remain unchanged. This simplifies compare/merge sessions of models that use different profile versions (much fewer changes are now reported). [page 20]</span></li>
<li style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;vertical-align:middle"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">A new validation rule now detects guards that have been duplicated for transition triggers (for example due to faulty merges in the past). Multiple guards are supported by the C++ code generator, but are usually not created with intention since they are not well supported in the user interface. The validation rule reports a warning if multiple guards are found for a transition trigger. [page 21]</span></li>
<li style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;vertical-align:middle"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">The analysis of source dependencies in the model compiler has been improved so that dependencies that represent forward declarations now are skipped. This makes context sensitive library builds faster and more accurate. [page 25]</span></li>
<li style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;vertical-align:middle"><span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">The build variant feature, that has been experimental for several releases, is now declared non-experimental. In this sprint we have completed our testing and updated some of the APIs and documentation. You can use build variants in order to build multiple variants of an application from the same TCs, and provide users with a customized and easy-to-use build user interface. [page 27]</span></li>

<li>Search and Replace now supports the new file format for transformation configurations (which, by the way, now is called *.tcjs) [page 17]</li>
<li>The interpretation of a backslash as an escape character in the Search field is now relaxed so that you only need to escape a backslash if it is followed by a *, ? or \. For example, this makes it more practical to search for Window-style paths that contain backslashes. [page 17]</li>
<li>It&#39;s now possible to automate code-to-model synchronization by means of a new Ant task. [page 18]</li>
<li>A new preference allows you to set Java VM arguments for the model compiler. [page 19]</li>
<li>Two new Ant tasks make it easy to generate the map and environment files for the model compiler from an existing RSARTE workspace. [page 20]</li>
<li>We continued to make progress in the area of build variant support. In this release there is now a first version of the API documentation included. [page 22]</li>

Except for the last one all these features exist both in 10.1 and 10.2. Going forward most new features will only be implemented in the 10.2 release, and we therefore recommend our users to upgrade to 10.2 as soon as possible.</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>Support for move constructors and move assignment operators in the model compiler. These special functions can be generated either as defaulted or deleted using new properties on the C++ General properties page of a class. [What&#39;s New in 10.1 page 46]</li>
<li>You can now specify the generation of default constructors, copy constructors and copy assignment operators as either deleted or defaulted, using new properties on the C++ General properties page of a class. This feature is only available when building using the model compiler. [What&#39;s New in 10.1 page 47]</li>
<li>The support for build variants was extended so that the function that defines the available build variants now get the currently built TC as input. This makes it possible to have different build variants for different kinds of TCs. [What&#39;s New in 10.1 pages 48 - 49]</li>
<li>It&#39;s now possible to install RSARTE 10.2 into a read-only Eclipse installation. A couple of features cannot be installed this way, but workarounds exist for making them available.

<ul dir="ltr">
<li>The Property Sets property page for C++ properties has been split into two separate property pages: C++ General and C++ Target RTS. We have also reorganized the C++ properties on these pages to make them easier to work with. Related properties are now grouped together, it&#39;s easier to get an overview of available properties, and properties are in many cases disabled when they are not applicable. [p 15]</li>
<li>The EGit documentation was updated to make it up-to-date with EGit 4.6.1 and Eclipse Neon 3. [p 10]</li>
<li>Moving the cursor around in the Documentation field of the Properties view using arrow keys, Home, End etc. now works in a more natural way for rich text comments.</li>
<li>The model compiler now prints a warning if it detects that the same element is included in multiple TCs for the same build. [p 37]</li>
<li>Initial support for building multiple variants of a TC using the model compiler was implemented. This feature works for the new JavaScript based TC file format, and the build variants are also accomplished by writing JavaScript using APIs provided by RSARTE. See the command-line help for the model compiler for more details. [p 37]</li>
<li>The model compiler now supports building external CDT projects. It delegates the generation of the necessary makefile to RSARTE through an HTTP call, in much the same way as the Compare/Merge server works. [p 40]</li>

<li>We continue to improve Search functionality based on the user feedback. In particular, the performance problem and several improvements for the selection scope search. Another improvement is related to the progress bar for search operations which now reports actual progress of the running job so user can estimate completion time for long-running tasks.</li>
<li>New warning mechanism was introduced to prevent possible model corruption. There are particular broken references which could not remain in the model after its loading and should be removed. Following save action on such models may potentially cause model corruption. Starting this sprint, there is special dialog warning users about removals that were done during loading. User also can control this behavior using special workspace preference &quot;Save model resource with removed broken reference&quot; available at <em>UML Development -&gt; Real Time -&gt; Resource Resolution</em> page.</li>
<li>We keep working on the RSARTE support for the new TC file format (.tc.js). Now users have possibilities to convert .tc files to the new format (.tc.js) from RSARTE GUI using special context menu command &quot;Convert to Java Script&quot;. This command is currently marked as &quot;Experimental&quot;. Files in the new format are visible in the Project Explorer and have the same icon as usual transformation configuration files. It is possible to set such TCs as active, build and clean them. Take into account, that Build and Clean commands are Experimental and you should make sure that the Model Compiler is set as an active RSARTE builder.</li>

<li>Merging text is now easier thanks to a new single-view text merge editor which can be used instead of the old &quot;sub merge&quot; feature. This is currently an experimental feature. [11]</li>
<li>The support for external projects was made more flexible thanks to support for environment variables in the map file. There is also a new search scope &quot;Workspace and External Projects&quot; which can be used for searching both in the workspace and in all external projects. [22]</li>
<li>A new preference was introduced for automatically loading models of imported external projects. It is recommended to have it enabled so that navigation from search result items will be quick. [21]</li>
<li>We continued to improve the model compiler, both the user interface and the tool itself. Now we support the &quot;save before build&quot; preference, and we also made an effort to unify preferences for the old and new C++ code generator. [23, 24]</li>
<li>Readability of generated C++ code was improved by including a comment with the qualified name of states. This works for both capsules and passive class state machines. [25]</li>

Below is a short summary (references to the What&#39;s New presentation within brackets):</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>Support for external projects. These are projects that you currently don&#39;t have in your workspace, but that others in your team may have in theirs. It&#39;s now possible to search in those projects, and if you find something interesting, you can import the external projects into your workspace. There is also a new Import wizard for such projects. When an external project is imported, its dependent projects are automatically imported too. This helps you keep a consistent set of projects in your workspace, without having to keep all project dependencies in mind. <strong>[18-19]</strong></li>
<li>Several new useful navigation commands in the Project Explorer, Properties view and in diagrams. <strong>[13-17]</strong></li>
<li>Improved editing of literals and parameters in the Properties view. <strong>[12]</strong></li>
<li>Improved layout of some property pages. <strong>[11]</strong></li>
<li>Continued progress with the model compiler. Now, this is the recommended way of building RSARTE models in batch builds. However, we still have some more work in the user interface of this feature, and it&#39;s therefore still marked as experimental. <strong>[20]</strong></li>

But before spending Christmas time with family and friends we in the development team have done a last 2016 RSARTE drop, including updates of both the Eclipse Mars compatible 10.0 version and the Neon compatible 10.1. So, the latest and greatest versions of RSARTE are now:</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>10.0 2016.50 for Eclipse Mars</li>
<li>10.1 2016.50 for Eclipse Neon</li>
</ul>
<p dir="ltr">This drop includes improvements in the new search feature including:</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>automatic loading of search matches on selection in the search view,</li>
<li>improved &quot;Modeling References&quot; command, and</li>
<li>other miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements.</li>
</ul>
<p dir="ltr">We have also continued the work on making the user interface easier to work with for C/C++ development using the Capsule Development viewpoint. In this sprint mainly focusing on the properties view, removing items not relevant for code generation and renaming items using C++ terminology.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Our still experimental model compiler effort has continued with more testing and improvements in the user interface integration. This is now getting closer to product quality and we encourage testing of it to make sure that it will work for your applications.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In this drop the new features are available in both the Eclipse Mars and Eclipse Neon streams, but moving forward in 2017 we will focus the effort on the 10.1 Eclipse Neon version of RSARTE.</p>
<p dir="ltr">As usual the What&#39;s New presentations are updated with all new features.

<p dir="ltr"><strong>This is the first release of 10.1 that is not experimental</strong>, and we therefore recommend it as the latest and greatest RSARTE release. However, except for the Eclipse version there are no other differences between these releases.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><strong>The new search feature is now also for the first time available as a non-experimental feature</strong>, and the old search implementation has been removed. However, all old search commands, like Find/Replace, Model Search, Find NamedElement etc, are still available but have been updated to use the new search implementation. As part of this work, the new search implementation now also supports searching in working sets. Another improvement is increased flexibility about where to store the search index. It is now by default stored in the workspace metadata, but can if wanted be stored next to the projects, or in a custom location. [page 59-60]</p>
<p dir="ltr">&nbsp;</p>
<p dir="ltr">We also did some <strong>usability improvements</strong> in this release:</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>The header text for the Properties view is now more compact by not showing the full qualifier for the name. Also, RT specific stereotypes are hidden and shown as proper element types instead. [page 34]</li>
<li>The &quot;Add UML&quot; context menu has been cleaned up, and many items were removed for creating elements that are not of interest when designing RT models. [page 30]</li>
</ul>
<p dir="ltr">We also <strong>continued to make progress in the new model compiler</strong>, for example by improving the performance of its UI integration.</p>

<ul dir="ltr">
<li>The default value of attributes and parameters, and the value of enumeration literals, is no longer shown in the Project Explorer using a separate node. Instead the value appears after an equal sign in the same node that shows the name of the element. [page 26 and 27]</li>
<li>The Project Explorer representation of a passive class with a statemachine has become more compact by no longer showing the EventContainer node. [page 28]</li>
<li>RT specific stereotypes, such as &laquo;capsule&raquo; and &laquo;protocol&raquo;, are no longer shown in the Project Explorer. This makes node labels shorter which means less horizontal scrolling. It also means that you now can navigate to such elements by typing the first character of their names (just like navigation to other model elements work in the Project Explorer). [page 29]</li>
<li>The names of many editing commands have been improved so that the label of the Undo/Redo command in the Edit menu now more accurately describes what will happen when a change is undone or redone. [page 35]</li>
<li>Our new search implementation now supports searching inside a selected element only. We also did many other usability, quality and performance improvements in this new feature (which in this release still is experimental). [page 57 and 58]</li>
<li>We continued to improve the Model Compiler, our new tool for building models from the command-line. The integration with the RSARTE user interface was improved. For example, navigation into generated code now works, and markers in the Problems view appears for compilation problems. Note that the Model Compiler is still an experimental feature.</li>
</ul>

There is still more work to be done here, but already now you can install it and try it out. Just remember to switch off the code analysis feature of CDT (Codan) since it is not yet supported by RSARTE. The RSARTE 10.1 release is experimental and we would appreciate to hear your feedback about it.</p>Today the RSARTE development team releases a new version of RSARTE 10.

&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; The RSARTE EGit integration now supports EGit 4.4.1. The installation was also changed so that EGit now is installed together with RSARTE. [page 2]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; The Model Compiler has been integrated with the RSARTE user interface, which means it&#39;s now possible to test it more easily. [page 45]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; It&#39;s no longer necessary to have a license server for running RSARTE. We have implemented support for &quot;authorized user&quot; licensing based on license keys as an alternative to floating licenses. [page 52]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; When you build a TC where the Sources list is inherited, the &quot;Missing Source Elements&quot; dialog now adds missing sources to the TC where the Sources list is defined, rather than to the TC that is built. [page 38]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; It&#39;s now possible to distinguish the different kinds of values for TC settings by a visual indication in the TC editor. [page 34]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; A new command &quot;Delete Value&quot; is now provided by the TC editor for deleting the value of a TC setting. It replaces the old &quot;Revert to Inherited Value&quot; command. [page 36]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; You can now navigate into the TOP state by double-clicking on the state machine in the Project Explorer, when using the preference &quot;Let Open State Machine Diagram go inside TOP states automatically&quot;. [page 33]<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&bull; It&#39;s now easier to navigate into composite structure and activity diagrams by double-clicking on symbols. Navigation now works even if you happen to double-click on the name label. [page 22]</p>
<p dir="ltr">It&#39;s also worth mentioning that we have started in this sprint to work on version 10.1 of RSARTE. This version will be based on Eclipse Neon and CDT 9, and our goal is to have it ready before the end of the year.</p>

This sprint we will only ship an update of our RSARTE 10 stream. The 9.1.2 CP1 stream is in maintenance mode and during this sprint we did not receive any critical items that had to be fixed. Instead we have included an update (version 5.1) of our Model Fixup utility. The main improvement in this area is support for RSARTE 10 and Eclipse Mars. See the <a href="https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/W0c4a14ff363e_436c_9962_2254bb5cbc60/page/Model%20Fixup%20Plugin">Model&nbsp;Fixup&nbsp;page</a> for more information.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In the RSARTE 10 drop we have included a number of usability enhancements as well as a number of fixes in the (still experimental) new search feature.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The usability improvements include:</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>A compare/merge user interface improvement where the code editor area is increased to show more of the code snippets.</li>
<li>Some fixes in the project explorer where now more useful keywords are shown for elements in activity diagrams.</li>
<li>An improvement in the property pages where the sort order for the signature column now is preserved when you switch between model elements.</li>
<li>A change in the behaviour when modifying the type of e.g. an attribute. We now no longer loose the default value when the type is changed.</li>
<li>Navigation from a state symbol to sub state machine diagrams has been improved for the fairly common case where there is inheritance between state machines.</li>

<p dir="ltr">In the search area we have also in this sprint focussed on the key search work flow: Searching, investigating the search results and navigating to found matches. The improvements in this area includes:</p>
<ul dir="ltr">
<li>The text for matching references has been improved, now showing more information. For example we now show the name of an attribute that has a type that matches the search query</li>
<li>The navigation menu has been extended, allowing more direct navigation to various elements related to the search match.</li>
<li>It is now possible to copy the search result and paste e.g. in a spreadsheet</li>
<li>Highlighting of search results in code editor is now supported</li>
<li>We now have support for finding matches in native type references.</li>
<li>The association between matches in code snippets and model elements has been improved. Previously the matches were associated only with opaque elements, now they are associated with the container, for example an operation.</li>
